A chance for the home team to play in a Super Bowl is a big deal in any city.

When you get a pair of teams playing for a Super Bowl berth that have a combined zero Super Bowl wins despite playing through the entire Super Bowl era, things get turned up a notch. Or two.

The volume was raised in both Minneapolis and Philadelphia Saturday night as spontaneous pep rallies broke out during the Wild-Lightning and 76ers-Bucks games with fans of both teams belting out the increasingly popular competing rallying cries for their respective home teams.

That makes for a pretty good Saturday night in both cities. Go out and watch the home team score wins, and keep the party going with the NFC championship pre-game buzz at its peak.

There was even some support in Minnesota from Twins players, who appeared to have met up in a dank Minneapolis batting cage to provide some comic relief to the passion on display from fans of their NHL and NBA counterparts.
